Automated LinkedIn Lead Finder & Gmail Drafter with AI

This n8n workflow automates lead generation by turning a simple query like 'Product managers working on generative AI in YouTube in New York' into actionable contacts. It generates Boolean search strings for LinkedIn, performs authenticated Google searches to find profiles and context, extracts LinkedIn URLs, and uses OpenAI to parse first names, last names, and company domains. Hunter.io then verifies and finds professional emails, with all data appended to a Google Sheet for tracking (columns: first_name, last_name, domain, email, context). It further scrapes public profile info to identify common ground for personalization.

Finally, it crafts tailored cold emails and places them in your Gmail drafts for review and send. This eliminates hours of manual LinkedIn searching, profile filtering, and email writing, saving massive time on outreach.

Ideal for job seekers targeting hiring managers, recruiters scaling candidate outreach, sales teams and founders pursuing warm leads. Setup takes 5-10 minutes with API keys for Hunter.io, Google, and OpenAI. High ROI for personalized, high-response campaigns without tedious research.
